    Big Muddy

    Bad tornadoes with 21 killed in Mississippi last night and it looks real close to where BM lives. If anyone knows how to get in touch, you might just do a check on him and family.

    We survived it with little damage, but that thing was an absolute monster. It came within 15 miles straight-line distance from us. According to a first-responder, the destruction is very similar to the Joplin, MO tornado, and it crossed the entire width of MS.
    Thanks for checking on us.

    Just got word from a friend in the Amory, MS area, which also got hit hard, that one of his co-workers lost his wife and two children to the same tornado 150 miles away.

    Glad to hear you’re safe and sound, straight from the horse’s mouth so to speak! Also, just good to hear from you. So sorry to hear about the deaths there from it.

    Tornado alley seems to have move south and east the past few years. Ark, Ms, Tn, all seem toget it worse than us lately.

    Haven't heard any mention of Conway getting hit but little Rock and Wynne both were pounded. It's intensified and is tearing a swath thru Tennessee right now

    Heard Wynne got hit by two tornados
